What is the Vertica equivalent of crosstab or pivot table found in PostgreSQL and other RDBMS’s?
Vertica doesn’t currently (release 3.5.9 for future reference) have that capability. I talked with a co-worker and his suggestion was to play around with “cross join.”
The other option would be to distill your results as far as you could and then run a process outside of the database (perl, Java, C#, etc) that manipulated the data.
Vertica is open to feature requests however.
I don’t believe this will be available in the upcoming 4.0 release either.
